I could only do about 18 before the burn as opposed to 23 reps I was at on the machine.
Not sure how much more of the band I can stand on to make them tougher. I don't think it's intended for a person to stand really close to the handles and stretch the hell out of it.  |
I forgot about bands. I use to use them all the time, it's a great form for static resistance. I have 30, 40, and 80lb resistance bands. They are fairly affordable as well, no handles, just giant rubber bands. They can be used for all sorts of things, along with stretching.
